You cannot modify the *adapter* in a background thread if it is already attached to an AdapterView. You can modify the ArrayList directly from a background thread (not via the ArrayAdapter), then call notifyDataSetChanged() on the main application thread when that work is done. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Localized Android Question-and-Answer Sites: http://www.andglobe.com -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
